The first period for resident families to submit Intra-district School Transfer Requests is now open until Jan. 15. The Intra-district Transfer Request form should be filled out for resident students wanting to attend a new school OTHER than their "attendance area" school* in 2014-15.

WHO SHOULD SUBMIT A REQUEST
Please complete the online transfer request if your child is:

A resident student entering kindergarten and you would like them to attend a District 197 elementary school other than the one in your attendance area for 2014-15.

A resident student entering 5th grade and you would like them to attend a District 197 middle school other than the one in your attendance area for 2014-15.

A resident or non-resident student who was enrolled in District 197 in 2013-14, entering grades 1-4 or 6-8 and you would like them to attend a district elementary or middle school in 2014-15 that is either:

Different from the one they attended in 2013-14 or

One that is outside your attendance area.

Complete a transfer request form for EACH child applying to enroll in a non-attendance area school in 2014-15.

Do not fill out a Transfer Request form if:

Your student is a resident of District 197 who is currently enrolled in grades K-3 or 5-7 in a District 197 school, AND will continue attending that school in 2014-15.

*Each school has an attendance area that determines which resident students are assigned to that school. An attendance area is a geographic area surrounding the school that optimizes the enrollment at each neighborhood school. Not sure what your attendance area school is? Call 651-403-7000.
